Trip to Bacharach 🇩🇪

It was a short weekend trip to Bacharach, Germany. Just to share my short itinerary here 🥰 I started the day by exploring the picturesque streets of Bacharach. I wandered through the charming alleyways, admiring the half-timbered houses, especially Alte Haus It's one of the oldest and most photographed buildings in town, dating back to 1368. 📍Oberstraße 61 Bacharach, Germany I then visited St. Peter’s Church, a beautiful Romanesque building with its red and white facade. The interior has stunning frescoes that reflect its rich history. It’s a peaceful spot to take in some local culture. 📍Langstraße 18, 55422 Bacharach, Germany I also had a fantastic lunch at Restaurant Rusticana, where I tried the Sauerbraten (marinated beef) with a glass of Riesling wine 🍷 . The cozy atmosphere made it a great spot to relax before continuing my exploration. 💰 €18-20 📍Blücherstraße 5, 55422 Bacharach, Germany After lunch, I hiked up to Stahleck Castle, which overlooks the town and offers panoramic views of the Rhine River and vineyards. Although it's now a youth hostel, but I was able walk around and enjoy the stunning scenery. 📍Auf dem Schloss, 55422 Bacharach, Germany In the evening, I stopped by Weinwirtschaft Friedrich Bastian for wine tasting. Their local Rieslings are fantastic, and I paired them with a light bite of Flammkuchen (a type of flatbread pizza) 🍕 💰€10-15 📍Oberstraße 40, 55422 Bacharach, Germany On the next day, I visited the Bacharach Wine Museum to learn about the winemaking history of the region. I found the exhibits fascinating and enjoyed a tasting of local wines 🙌🙌🙌 💰€5 (tastings are extra) If you were to visit the town, I would suggest you take a scenic cruise along the Rhine River. I did this, and it was a highlight of my trip. The views of the surrounding castles, vineyards, and charming villages are breathtaking 😍. Cruises depart from the Bacharach pier. 💰€15 📍Marktstraße 5, 55422 Bacharach, Germany Before leaving, I stopped at a small café near the waterfront. I tried the Spundekäs, a local cheese dip served with pretzels 🥨 it’s a light and tasty option perfect for a quick bite. #weekendgetaways #trip #vacation
